Best friends

It's got to the point where I post so infrequently, I've decided there's really not much point. So I think this will be the last post. For now, at least. Maybe I'll come back to this blog at some point - but for now, I'd rather spend time laughing with my children and the cute and wondrous and amazing things they do and say, and enjoy them, rather than enjoy them for a moment and then quickly makes notes to remind myself to update the blog, and then torment myself for how infrequently I actually do so. I had made a few notes to remind myself of a few funny things Chloë says and does, so will note them while I'm here: she constantly dances, ballerina-style - she is always twirling (she has refused to wear anything but dresses for about 6 months now, because she needs to wear something that twirls), and back in the summer made up a song, 'I'm a ballerina girl, every morning, every morning, every mooooorrrrrnniiiinnnng'; when playing shops she says things cost, for example, 3 'sunny pounds'; and she has been through a rather confused phase when, upon being asked how old she is, replies 'C for Chloë'. But these few stories don't capture her energy, her hearty, throaty laugh, how funny she is simply because she is nearly 3 and absolutely brimming over with personality, easily matching her big brother. And him, he is just adorable and fascinating. I feel - cheesy as it sounds - honoured to watch his mind grow and his inquisitiveness kick in, and how he just absorbs and relishes information and knowledge. And on top of that, he is the sweetest, kindest boy. The relationship that Benjy and Chloë have is so special; they absolutely, unconditionally adore each other - 'best friends', as they so often say. Of course they bicker and fight as well, but they really are absolute soul mates. And on that note, that's all from me for now!
